If I could bottle that feeling

It's dark, rainy and cold outside and has been drizzling all day. Vera and I have been indoors all day and playing. More fish on the home menu today, home made mango puree for lunch and a home made root veg concoction for dinner, all eaten with gusto. I'm trying to write down timings of food and sleep etc so that I can pass to the child minder when Vera starts her settling in period in December.

Those who know me know that I love lists and I have lists for everythings- all the oughts and musts, of varying degrees of importance. Today and lately I have been trying to ignore them as much as possible and enjoy here and now.

This afternoon Vera had a long sleep on me on the sofa and it was so lovely. Those are the moments that matter and I wish I could have bottled that feeling.
